Fruit And Vegetable Processor Filtration Structure for Easy Juice Extraction
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional fruit and vegetable processors lack an efficient mechanism for juice extraction and filtration, with limited capacity and difficulty in replacing filtering components.
Innovation Solution
The processor features a cup body with a passage and a filtering means mounted on its inner wall, a valve for juice flow control, and a sliding slot for easy filtering element replacement, allowing for increased capacity and efficient juice extraction.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If the cup body has a larger capacity to process fruit and vegetable, then the processing capacity is improved, but the structure complexity increases due to the added passage and filtering means
Solution Approach 1:
The filtering system is segmented into a removable filtering means and a fixed passage structure. The filtering means can be separated from the cup body for cleaning or replacement, while the passage remains integrated. This segmentation allows the cup body to maintain larger capacity without permanently increasing overall structure complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The passage serves multiple functions: it acts as a structural support element, a juice extraction channel, and a mounting structure for the filtering means. This multi-functionality reduces the need for additional separate components, thereby limiting the increase in structure complexity while maintaining processing capacity.
2Productivity
If a filtering means is provided to the interior of the cup body, then the juice extraction efficiency is improved, but the ease of operation deteriorates due to difficulty in replacing filtering elements
Solution Approach 1:
The filtering means is designed as a separate, removable component that can be easily detached from the cup body. This segmentation allows users to remove and replace filtering elements without disassembling the entire processor, significantly improving ease of operation while maintaining the filtering functionality for efficient juice extraction.
Solution Approach 2:
The filtering means is designed with dynamic characteristics, allowing it to be easily inserted and removed from the cup body. This dynamic design enables quick replacement of filtering elements during operation, transforming a previously difficult maintenance task into a simple user operation.
3Productivity
If the filtering means is mounted on the inner wall of the cup body, then the juice extraction is improved, but the ease of repair worsens due to difficulty in accessing and replacing filtering components
Solution Approach 1:
The filtering means is segmented as a removable module mounted on the inner wall of the cup body. This segmentation allows the filtering component to be easily accessed and removed from the exterior, eliminating the need to disassemble the entire cup body for repair or replacement, thus improving ease of repair while maintaining effective juice extraction.
Solution Approach 2:
The filtering means is designed to be extractable from the cup body through the opening at the top. This extraction capability allows maintenance personnel to easily remove and replace filtering components without complex disassembly procedures, significantly improving ease of repair while the filtering means remains mounted on the inner wall during operation for effective juice extraction.
